...New Mexico to Hillary Clinton. He's behind by a little over 1,000 votes, and 1 delegate, with 99% of the vote in, according to CNN.

Why prolong this? Give it up, Barack! It's done! OVER! YOU'RE FINISHED!...

...in New Mexico. :evilgrin:

7. My sister, born and raised in LA, lived in Albuquerque for a while...
...and she used to say that there was real time, and then there was N e w M e x i c o t i m e. Guess which rate they're moving at?

(She loved the scenery, but she's back in SoCal for good now.)

14. I know that was in Star Wars: A New Hope.

But was that really from a Monkees episode previously? Word for word? That would be so cool that I would have a hard time believing I never heard this before.

15. No. And Peter Tork was never drafted and sent to Nam.
But that might have been a groovy episode! :smoke:

12. Unfortunately, that 99% doesn't include the 16,000 or so provisional ballots.
So although 99% of precincts have reported, that doesn't necessarily mean that 99% of the vote is in. In fairness to those who cast provisional ballots, nobody should make determinations of the election until they are counted.

But yeah, I don't really care what happens in NM.
